Roses and Lace

If you haven't had the opportunity to take part in the Fred, She Said Designs Valentine Blog Hop, you can still do it. The hop runs through midnight tomorrow night EST. You can start the hop at Tracey-Lynn's blog.

Here's another card using one of the beautiful pre-colored images from the "Hearts and Roses" colored digi set. I've followed the Midnight Madness sketch for their challenge this week, so I'll be entering the card there. My papers are My Mind's Eye. I broke out my paper crimper (a rarely used tool) for a little added texture. I had just enough of that pretty lace to make it all the way around the rose frame. Sweet and simple!
Thanks for popping in!

Sweet and simple, maybe, but beautiful indeed! Love all the red and LOVE the lace around the die cut. And good for you for using your old crimper. I think the corrugated paper looks fabulous on here. I've got one of those things somewhere. Maybe I should go uncover that puppy now that you've inspired me. :)

Your roses are so striking! Love that vivd red and the lace. Thanks so much for joining us for this week's Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge and we hope you will come back and play again next week!Hugs,MarshaMMSC-DT

These two Valentines are beautiful, Tracy! Your coloring is coming along so well and really makes those digi images pop. Your "book" Valentine for your husband is just gorgeous--a favorite!! Don't think I've seen one of those, but I love it!!

I'm a wife to a wonderful loving husband of 30 years and the mother of an incredible daughter. I have always loved paper and finding ways to manipulate it. Store bought embellishments are wonderful, but I love to figure out how to make them or something very similar to them myself. Scrapbooking and cardmaking are great outlets for this kind of crafting. I may not be that great of an artist, but I thank God for allowing me to be able to at least attempt to be one.
